Re: basci question about queryset for retrieving top element

Both patterns will produce same query. You can also use django-debug-toolbar, which gives ur debugsqlshell tool. So you can execute code from the commandline and can see what the query will be.

Django also has a code pattern for your case - for getting the first element, you can just use latest() https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#latest
i.e. Model.objects.latest()
